The release in question will be the group’s ninth to date and follow-up to 2011′s King of Limbs.

Colin Greenwood told Africa’s Mail & Guardianrecently: “ are on a nine-month break until September when they will start work on their ninth album.”

Greenwood reiterated the same sentiment to BBC 6 Music earlier today, saying: “We’re taking some time out whilst people are doing some other stuff, doing their own things, and the plan is to get back together again end of the summer.”

Yorke’s side-project, Atoms For Peace will release debut album Amok on 26 February via XL Recordings.
